Act Fifty-Eight. olive branch

After Reiner's speech, Lanchester began to explain directly the results of his experiments these days, rewriting the alchemical reactions of many important experiments discovered in the past according to the principle of conservation of elements, and in three of them discovered three new compounds according to this law, which had been ignored in the past.

The entire conference hall was silent, everyone was taking notes in their own way, even Reiner, who was back in his seat and buried himself in the catalog, frantically absorbing knowledge.

Time passed quickly, and the morning meeting was over, and the attendees were to enjoy a sumptuous meal in the manor's dining room, and Reiner, who was so hungry that he took several portions of food and sat down at the table to feast on it.

In addition to the regular dishes such as fruit wood roast chicken, pan-fried steak, cod soup, etc., there are many rare foods that Reiner has never seen before, according to the introduction, these should be ingredients from other half-planes, most of them have a little effect of concocting magic, which is very helpful for the mage, in line with the principle of eating for nothing and not losing, Reiner took a little of everything.

But no one was going to laugh at him at this time, and in the eyes of the mages, this mage apprentice was already a rising star, especially when some enthusiastic mages came forward to inquire and learned that Reiner was only twenty years old, this expectation became even stronger.

Knowledge and strength can be cultivated continuously, but it is difficult to cultivate a mind that is good at observation and discovery in a short period of time, so it can be said that Reiner now has the foundation to become a good mage, and he only needs to keep moving forward, and he will definitely be able to achieve something.

"Reiner, I guess I can call you that, right?"

As Reiner took a sip of a pale green liquor said to be made from the juice of carnivorous plants in a half-plane, Frederick. Dmitry came to his side, and the Nine-Ring High Mage looked approachable at this time, like a kind elder.

"Your Excellency Dmitry."

Reiner hurriedly wiped the corners of his mouth with a napkin, causing Frederick to smile.

"I've been discussing with His Excellency Stenion whether it would be appropriate to invite you to join Mercury Balance."

Add Mercury Balances!

Although Reiner didn't quite understand the meaning of this, he could guess from what Peter said to himself yesterday that the mercury balance should be the dream of many mages, especially those who mainly focus on alchemy, to join the organization.

"Well, I'm sorry for my ignorance, but I don't know much about magical organizations."

Reiner honestly said that he couldn't rush into a camp he didn't understand, although judging from the news, most of these camps were similar to the existence of the Society, and there should be no armed conflict, but Reiner still wanted to know the situation first.

"Haha, I'm sorry, I subconsciously thought that the mercury balance was already a household name."

Frederick smiled heartily, and then began to patiently explain several famous factions within the Rainbow Tower, including the mercury balance that focuses on alchemy, the Storm Council of the elemental system, the stargazer of the astrological system, the weaver of the law system, and the immortal throne of the necromancy.

There is also frequent communication between factions, but the vast majority of mages can only specialize in one or two factions, so it is natural to choose a faction that is more suitable for them.

Joining these factions entails obligations such as nurturing students and exploring half-planes, but there are also great benefits.

At the simplest level, as the publisher of Alchemy, members of Mercury Balance enjoy half-price access to the latest journals, as well as a variety of alchemical materials at cheaper prices, as well as the qualification to attend academic seminars such as this conference, which are only available to members of Mercury Balance.

Frederick's words made Reiner very excited, not only because of the discounts, of course, but because he was able to get in touch with the upper echelons of the wizarding world, and even obtain a layer of umbrella.

Although the incident of Piram ended in Reiner's victory, the thrilling scene at the end still scared Reiner.

Yes, this is a world of magic, and it is difficult for Reiner to guarantee that he will not encounter some malicious mages to attack him in the future, nor can he guarantee that he will be as lucky as before every time, he urgently needs to improve his strength, and he also needs to find a backer to protect himself.

However, the need to take on obligations also made Reiner a little hesitant, if it was to train students, he would be fine, if he was directly thrown into a certain half-plane, I am afraid that Reiner would not survive for half a day.

Seeing Reiner lost in thought, Frederick smiled and patted him lightly on the shoulder.

"It's okay if it's hard to decide for a while, you shouldn't have passed the magic assessment and got the official magic rank, it's better to wait until the assessment is over and become an official mage before replying."

Although he admired Reiner very much in his heart, Frederick also knew that persecution was difficult to get a good result, not to mention that if you want to join the mercury balance, you really need at least one magic level, so he said so.

"Well, thank you."

Reiner bowed slightly, the last magic test was in a month, if it was properly prepared, it should not be a problem to pass, and it would not be too late to reply at that time.

Thinking of this, Reiner had another idea, and he asked politely.

"By the way, Your Excellency Dmitry, you just said that there were more than one academic conference like this?"

"Yes, although this meeting is the largest within the Mercury Balance, there are several other academic seminars in the various branches, and as for the other factions, there are similar activities, what's wrong?"

Frederick replied that he had thought Reiner wanted to attend a similar event, but the other party quickly gave a different answer.

"That's right, my magic academy is currently experiencing some financial difficulties, and then I happened to develop a new drink, although it sells well in the surrounding cities, but it still needs to expand the market."

Reiner boldly said that since he relied on his paper to get the other party's appreciation, he simply took advantage of the trend to promote Coke.

"So I wondered if I could promote my drink inside the Rainbow Tower, or the mercury scale."

Hearing Reiner's words, there was a moment of silence before Frederick replied.

"Of course, it's okay to be able to help a talented newcomer, but you know, I'm afraid this kind of thing is not up to me alone, and it has to be unanimously agreed upon by all the Excellencies of the Mercury Scales."

This requirement is not difficult to achieve, as long as Frederick agrees, even if Reiner hands over ordinary water, it doesn't matter, the reason why he says this is to give Reiner the impression that he values him very much and tries to help him, so as to win over this future talent.

"Uh, what do you mean?"

Reiner carefully pondered his words and asked.

"I mean, did you bring a sample, Reiner?"

Frederick asked with a wink, smiling.
